Cycle Kenya 2019 · 11 October 2019 to 20 October 2019 ·

Regain is the only charitable organisation dedicated solely to improving the independence of all British men & women who have become tetraplegic as a result of a sporting or leisure accident. A tetraplegic is unable to walk and has limited reach & dexterity because use of the arms is severely impaired.

Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page.  

I have been inspired by my parents who have both pedalled all over the world during the past 25 years - always raising funds for the charity Regain.  Now it is my turn!  I have never done anything like this before but I really want to support Regain and raise much needed funds to give a degree of independence back to those paralysed through sport.  Regain is the only charity dedicated to improving the lives of people who have become tetraplegic through a sporting accident.  We all know that life can change in a second and I really want to do something proactive to help. 

Every pound I raise will go towards the charity as I am covering my own costs.  We will be taking 5 tetraplegics on this epic journey which  will involve pushing them up the mountainous terrain and holding onto them in their hand cycles on the way down. Effectively acting as their engine and brakes.

If you damage your spinal cord, you cannot shiver or sweat so keeping my tetraplegic friends at the right temperature will be another major challenge on this journey.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for Regain.

I will be so grateful to you for any donation, large and small and will definitely let you know how I get on.

Thank you in advance.

Love Alix xx
